Really, really lovely cumulonimbus action tonight! I just happened to have my drone in the car and got some solid shots of DT Seattle/Lake Washington/Mercer Island/Bellevue looking north from Skyway. Alas, the focal length of the lens doesn't do the vertical height justice and my WB was off rendering it into semi-gross HDR territory, but still... fun looking weather! It was quite windy- I was flying right at 390 ft and the drone was giving me all sorts of warnings about sustained winds/gusts.
A most incredible snow storm. At times the snowfall rates have been as heavy or slightly heavier than January 2017. Temp 27.5, Dewpoint: 27.1 with gusty east wind and very heavy snow continuing. I'm at 11 1/2" now! UNBELIEVABLE!!!! This pic does no justice at all.

I’ve dealt with some real online masters at this and find they stand on feet of clay.
We’re in Oklahoma City today
not sure if I’m going mobile or watching the action from our hotel. Anyhow looking forward to a fun day. Had a nice show from our room two nights ago.
You have definitely been near ground zero in the heavy rain dept....fill up those bonds and creeks! I think @OKwx2k4 did pretty good yesterday from that strong line that went through in the morning.
